  • @PirateOfTheInternet Google, "Define: Plastic" You get this:

    A synthetic material made from a wide range of organic polymers such as polyethylene, PVC, nylon, etc., that can be molded into shape...

  • @tomek123kotek That's great, except plastics don't necessarily have to be polymers. Just read the wikipedia article for "plastic". Plastic describes a wide range of materials that have certain properties, but not necessarily specific molecular properties. Certainly the vast majority of plastic we use every day is polymer-based, but that does not mean that all plastics are polymers. No definition anywhere describes all plastics as polymers.

  • @PirateOfTheInternet Please read the following wikipedia articles: Polymerisation, Casein, Polymer

  • I have the book how to fossilize your hamster.

  • @TheLadyFirecracker no it isn't, i've done it before. try it, and you will see
